I would suggest pulling the battery to force a cold re-boot. Then after re-installing the battery if you still get the charging symbol you should contact the vendor about getting a replacement unit.
Remember that the USB port if that is the problem only has a 3 month warranty. So I wouldn't put off dealing with the problem too long.
Keep us posted if you will I think this is the first technical glitch on the SX I have seen.
This intrigued to the point I did something I've not before done: put my SX in Wattage Mode with an atty atop.
So, I needed to double check that what you show is not normal or usual. It ain't.I know what the SHORTAGE symbol is in Joules mode, a diagonal line from the upper right to lower left of the battery indicator but not in Wattage Mode. (Don't ask how I know that.
) And, I am not going to speculate on the off chance some wattage mode person has seen this. I can say it is not normal. Suggest you put a different atty on top. If the lightening symbol goes away we have a clue. If not, we re main intrigued.
[As I type I see HolmanGT's suggestion. If that does not change the battery symbol try my suggestion.]
Well, that rules out a SHORT (contingent on what "fine" means to you.)
ok. Yeah, I haven't gotten a "Short" notice. I pulled the battery (VTC4) without turning it off. Restarted it and got the same symbol. Changed RDAs and still there. I got this from a trusted member here and I don't know if they used the USB. I haven't used the USB since I got it.
Baffled...

The only other two things I can think of is it's a battery warning meaning the cell is not good (try another cell first) or a re-install of the firmware as a last resort. You could also send YiHi a quick message as it takes a day or two to get a reply. So that's three things
Good luck
I'll throw out one more suggestion if the battery pull doesn't help. You might try to do a firmware update even if it's the same version. I'd also send off an email to Yihi and your vendor just to get a time stamp on your reported problem.
Thank y'all very much!
Another little clue: I've had the same coil in for a couple of weeks. It's consistently read 0.58 ohms until I posted first. The resistance is reading 0.62 now. Maybe it is a short in the making. I'll update the firmware and then contact the authorities.
Appreciate the help!

It sounds as though you either have a defective USB port, or simply some dirt in there. Try plugging in a USB cable and then removing. Or using some air, give it a good cleaning. Your units thinks the cable is plugged in.
Got a good laugh today. I heard on here that they might be using Cerakote so I asked Perry at Varitube about it and he asked YiHi and he copied and pasted the answer back it was Cerakote, What is that.
It doesn't look like cerakote to me either and peels off like uncured cerakote

Well if it helps, not long ago I didn't know what cerakote was either.
There are some parts in the world where you don't carry or own a gun nor do any gun related maintainance. [emoji14] [emoji14]
Wish I was in Texas so I could carry at least two guns in my waist, one backup on each ankle, two concealed under my arms and maybe another in my back. I would also hire someone to carry the ammunition

Ok, enough nic for today
